The Diary Junction is never going to win any prizes for its design, that much is certain. When will people learn that white text on a dark background (in this case, indigo) is a really bad idea? Better use of links and more generous spacing would also help with the navigation and ease of use.
But, gripes out of the way, this amateur (in the best sense) attempt to document historical and literary diarists is a great browse. Truly a labour of love by one individual, over 370 diarists can be accessed through a variety of lists, including alphabetically, chronologically and by profession, and for each there is a brief biographical summary, journal dates and a few links. This isn't the site for in depth information on any of the diarists but it does provide a good overview of journal-writers from 838 right up to the present day.
